The proposed expansion is appropriate for the site in that the expansion is taking place at the rear of the existing building,which currently has extensive natural vegetative screening from Osgood St. In addition, the proposed porch will be located at the existing entrance to the building; 2) Based on input received from both the Planning Board,the Planning Board's stormwater management consultant and the Conservation Commission, the applicant has provided sufficient stormwater management for the treatment of both volume and flow of stormwater for the new addition and has also provided a floodplain replication area, thus complying with Massachusetts Stormwater Standards, as well as the Planning Board's Site Plan Review standards and the Conservation Commission's stormwater standards. The proposed stormwater detention structures were increased, as part of the review process, in order to address the peak runoff rates for the 100 year storm event. 3) The use as developed will not adversely affect the neighborhood as the property is located in an Industrial zone and-has very few immediate abutters. Also, the applicant will be constructing the addition in an area that is presently heavily disturbed and not visible from Osgood St.; 4) There will be no nuisance or serious hazard to vehicles or pedestrians. The proposal will not have a significant impact on parking within the site since the site currently has sufficient storage and parking area for vehicles related to the business. With the addition, the building will expand from 2,700 sq. ft. to 5,700 sq. ft., with a 72 sq. ft. porch, on a lot that consists of 3.79 acres, leaving ample room for traffic circulation; 5) Finally the Planning Board finds that this project generally complies with the Town of North Andover Zoning Bylaw requirements as listed in Section 8.3.5, but requires conditions in order to be fully in compliance.
